You’re a star.

Like a comet or one that stays in the sky forever?

One that stays in the sky forever?

It was a trick question;

Shooting star; fleeting; temporary;

Catch her like a butterfly.

Forever star; unobtainable, far;

Shines bright against cobalt clouds;

That makes for the sparkle.

Is this why women are complicated?

* 

You had a question for me when we were in the car,

But then as usual you decided not to share.

True as my words, I remember the question,

But true to form, I won’t ask the question.  

I can’t share with you.

Why are you not allowed to share?

I don’t remember there being any rules?

Rules are magic and appear only for you, apparently.

Secrets, secrets, secrets, frustrating.

Tease!  What sweet would I get in return for a secret?

My lips are sealed.

Such a picture of innocence.

I’ll tell you in maybe ten hundred days.

Patience of a saint?

Please, please, pretty please?

You’ve proved me right by your wrongs

So many times, I know it’s not coming,

So there is no need for you to pretend.

 If your words, were ever

An incentive to prove you wrong…

*

The rules were not broken,

No need to forgive you,

There’s nothing to forgive.

And that to-do list will stay

In the back of my mind.

* 

It’s getting serious; the deal is

We aren’t supposed to discuss things

That are overtly flirtatious or suggestive;

That could lead to the aforementioned developments.

It is no longer permitted on the agenda.

I won’t be discussing it with anyone,

It’s one for me, and me only.

*

I think we both know which option I was referring to Miss A.

*

The right thing is always the hardest thing,

Often the opposite of what you want.

Nothing is ever simple.

She’s inside his head,

She’s got inside his head.
